QTRGui paths

QTRGui paths

2006-11-18 by Richard Ayres

I have just reinstalled QTRGui on my PC.  Whenever I try to open a
file from File --> Select Image, I get 'Error setting path: "F:\"'.  I
could find no method to change paths and there was no CFG file.  Help
anyone?

I had a similar problem when I clean installed QTR and used File --> 
Select Image.  QTR was looking for a "My Pictures" folder 
in C:\Document and Settings\me\My Documents.  I got around it by 
creating a dummy "My Documents" folder at the specified place.  I then 
deleted the dummy folder once QTR found it.  The next time I used File -
-> Select Image, QTR opened my Desktop.

Also, get the most recent version from the QTRgui WEB page. This has fixed a
problem with path handling.

Steve:  The problem I was describing relates to a "clean" install 
(no files no registry entries)and it still exists with 2.4.3.15.

When I used File --> Select Image, QTR looked for "My Pictures" 
folder in the C:\Documents and Settings\me\My Documents (which 
wasn't there and thus the error message). I created a dummy "My 
Documents" folder under "My Documents" and QTR opened the dummy 
folder. I then deleted the dummy folder (without navigating to 
another folder), and QTR opened My Desktop looking for images, but 
at least no error message. I then navigated to my image folder and 
from that point forward QTR remembered my last opened image folder.

OK, but the problem is still fixed in version 2.4.3.15 which is the latest
version. If the folder does not exist it defaults to the desktop with no error.

By the way, the folder name it was looking for is the one that Windows supplied
when QTRgui asked where your "My Documents" folder was located. If you have
changed that without "informing" Windows, other applications will also get
confused.

and QTRgui works as as advertised including remembering the last open folder.

I can't recreate it on version 2.4.3.15. Are you sure?

Neither can I.  I don't know what I was doing to create the behavior.  
Sorry for being a bother.

There was a problem, but I corrected it in version .13.
